Essentially, the film is a meta-movie similar to Sacred Car Dealer and One Step Away, where form precedes story and characterization. Under this creative premise, the director's self-expression has become the primary purpose. In this film, the beautiful closed narrative structure, complex scene scheduling and minimalist narrative language have created a series of perception conflicts, which bring a sense of surprise to the audience. It's a Darren-esque aesthetic experience, and the symbolic characters and plot blanks allow viewers to cram in whatever they want. Unlike "God", the prominent commercial expressions (suspense, thriller and violence) in this film make the film's emotions more intense and inductive, which is what Darren wants to imprint the film in the minds of the audience. s method. But unfortunately, this choice makes the film in many places in the first two scenes cryptic, obscure, and deliberately pushed forward, and it is impossible to bear a close look, and it is impossible to coordinate them with the worldview and overall tonality of the film. Three and a half.
